Jagged little perilla Most of us associate the sharp, distinctive flavour of perilla frutescens with Japanese and Korean cuisines. The green or red leaves go by many names, including shiso, beefsteak leaf, sesame leaf, wild sesame and kkaennip (with spelling variations). There are also several cultivars but, with all of them, the leaves are broad, the edges jagged and the flavours similar. The plant's tiny, beautiful flowers are also used, mostly as a garnish.
In Japan, green perilla leaves and the plant's purple or white flowers are used to decorate sashimi platters. The green leaves are sometimes used when making high-end tempura; ingredients such as uni or shirako (male "roe") are wrapped in them before being dipped in batter and fried. They're also used in daifuku (mochi confections), where the fresh leaf is wrapped around the mochi and sweet stuffing (usually mashed red bean), to add fragrance and make the dessert seem less heavy.
In Korea, perilla is served alongside lettuce and other soft leaves on vegetable platters, and is used to wrap up meat and other savoury items. It also makes a delicious kimchi.

Shiso, also known by other names, is a fragrant plant with a heart-shaped form and jagged, sawtoothed edges. In addition, it is referred to as oba in Japan, which translates to "big leaf." It is also well-known by its Latin name, Perilla, which was employed to bring the leaf to the West in the middle of the s.
Although shiso is officially categorized as Perilla frutescens var. crispa, people may know it more colloquially as the beefsteak plant or as Japanese mint due to its flavour and near resemblance to the mint and basil family of plants.
With its bitter yet menthol-like flavour, green shiso, also known as aojiso, is more evocative of the family of mint plants from which it originates and possesses notes of lemon, cinnamon, and anise. Green shiso is generally considered to have a softer texture, smoother smell, and milder flavour than the other kind. It also leaves a slight sweet aftertaste on the tongue.
